Abstract In this research work we attempt to present research finding on photocatalyst activity of anatase
titanium dioxide that extracted from polymetallic ore in Orkhontuul soum Mongolia which is used for
building a model reactor to treat waste water whereas total bacteria especially E coli dramatically
decreased under UV-A In our study reactor is built with a thin film coated with extracted anatase (TiO2 -
9918) and UV-A which increases photocatalyst activity of anatase In order to test capacity of the reactor
to eliminate total bacteria in waste water including E coli which belongs bacteria group causes intestinal
infection experiments are carried out under UV-A different length of time 10rsquo 40rsquo 60rsquo 80rsquo 100 minutes
Research result shows that total bacteria decreased by 812-878 when TiO2 UV-A reactor at 60rsquo minutes
Keywords anatase titanium dioxide photocatalysis waste water bacteria E coli
1 Introduction
New technology and methods for extracting natural mineral resources especially extraction of pure
substance and metals with high degree of purity and their oxides and salines are emerging in order to meet
high demand at global market However in Mongolia metals and minerals extraction is commonly carried
out on ores with high content of metals or minerals which have a negative impact on the nature in terms of
environmental pollution and misuse of the resources Therefore we have been carried out this research work
on extraction of metal oxide with high degree of purity from polymetallic ore with low content of metals
Polymetallic ores are complex materials containing several metals and metal compositions However
transition metal minerals such as titanium iron can be recovered by the methods leaching minerals from
ores using an acidic solution such as sulfuric acid [1] Titanium dioxide can be produced from high content
of titanium such as an ilimenite mineral which is treated with the sulphuric acid (H2SO4) chemical reaction
(12) follow as
FeTiO3+H2SO4+2(n-1)H2O=TiOSO4∙nH2O+FeSO4+nH2O (1)
TiOSO4+2H2O=TiO2∙H2O+H2SO4 (2)
First of all we determined its optimal condition to extract transition metal by sulphate method [2] and
then titanium dioxide and other minerals have extracted whilst removing related elements during sulphate
processes of the ore sample which has been repeated
Rutile brookite and anatase are different crystalline forms of titanium dioxide which can be found as
mineral in nature Structures characteristics and photo catalyst properties of rutile and anatase are studied

widely and they can be synthesized in laboratory at low temperature However anatase has higher photo
catalytic properties than rutile[3]
Last decades large numbers of outbreaks occurred in various locations due to waterborne diseases caused
by waste water and contaminated water [4] Therefore it has been one of the major challenges to purify
contaminated water released from industry and domestic uses for scientists Also an increased bacteria
resistance to commonly used disinfectants and chemotherapeutics require to develop new method and
technology for purifying waste water and contaminated water [5]
Titanium dioxide as an anatase has been proven to be useful material for purifying waste water due to its
photo catalytic and semiconductor nature [6]
Matsunaga and his colleagues (1985) have firstly reported disinfecting nature of the photo catalytic
reaction of TiO2 Since then there have been numerous of research works carried out to examine the
effectiveness of the TiO2 on a broad spectrum of bacteria in different conditions [7] The nature of photo
catalytic disinfection of TiO2 lies in its a strong oxidizing power associated with OH radicals [8] and
oxygen that is photo generated which lead to peroxidation of lipid [9] Also other study has proven that
coenzyme A of bacteria or microorganisms are photo oxidized that leads cell death in relation to the TiO2
photo catalytic disinfection [10]
2 Experimental
Materials and methods As a research raw material is polymetallic ore in the Orkhontuul soum
Mongolia has selected This ore is occupied in South East of the Selenge province that is 250 km away from
capital Ulaanbaatar city and 250 km away from center of the province
As a research material waste water have been collected from run off from Ulaanbaatar waste water
plant
On the basic of the laboratory tests a scheme flow sheet for the preparation of TiO2 ore sample has been
proposed involving the following main process milling sulphuric acid leaching calcining hydrochloric acid
leaching water hydrolisis concentrated sulphuric acid decomposition
The sample was milled before leaching process First we determined optimal conditions of sulphuric
acid leaching process In the sulphate process the milled sample is treated with a 93 concentrated
sulphuric acid at 1400С for 10-12 hours where SL ratio is 115 Once sulphate processing completed then it
calcined at 7500С degrees Those processes not shown in Figure 1 It is difficult process to carry out if
polymetallic ore contains silica group minerals and once sulphate processing takes place where metal
minerals in the ore are formed sulphate forms and at sametime as soluble rate increases the process turns out
to become much easy Once sulphate process has carried on polymetallic ore which contained silica group
minerals then has calcined at 7500С
After sulphurization and calcining process we are dissoluted the sample in a water with +20C
temperature and then separated solid and liquid phase Resulphurization process repeated again the solid
phase in 900С degrees and separated solid and liquid phase Solid phase is treated with a 20 concentrated
hydrochloric acid for 15 hours whereas acid leaching has taken place whereas iron ionic is in liquid phase
Process to separate solid and liquid phases repeated again and a separated solid phase is treated with 87
concentrated H2SO4 for 6 hours and then hydrolysis process has carried on at 700С for 15 hours in order to
remove silica oxide
At the next stage 01 moll EDTA solution was added to titanium sulphate solutions The solution was
heated to 900C for 90 min The precipitate was filtered washed with deionized water and dried in air at room
temperature [2] The powder was calcined at different temperatures 6000С for 4 hours Recrystallization
process carried out in order to increase purity of titanum dioxides Figure 1
It is well known that EDTA plays a key role in improving the purity Therefore we used EDTA for
improving the purity of TiO2 particles and EDTA was introduced as an additive to precipitate the
precipitation of Fe3+
during the hydrolysis of titanium sulphate chemical reaction (34) follow as

Chemical analysis of the selected polymetallic ore sample and extracted titanum oxides are accurately
studied and computed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) and full reflecting X-ray
flourescence (XRF) spectrometer minerals analysis determinate by X-ray diffractometer (Enraf Nonius
Delft) and mineral morphology structure by Hitachi TM-1000 SEM-EDX a device for analytical method

3 Results and Discussion
In the result of the chemical analysis of the polymetallic ore macro elements such as an iron (Fe-
2812) aluminium (Al-95) titanium (Ti-084) magnesium (Mg-061) potassium (K-057)
calcium (Ca-071) contents are determined by ICP-MS method (Table 1) and quartz (SiO2) of silica group
anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8) albite (NaAlSi3O8) magnetite (Fe3O4) minerals detected by X-ray phase analysis of
the sample Figure 2
The experimental result is shown extracted titanium hydroxide is calcined at 6000С for 4 hours to extract
titanium oxide and X-ray phase analysis carried on to determine crystall structure As a result of the X-ray
phase analysis titanium oxide at 6000C Figure 3

We carried out experiment 36 times at different lenght of times 10rsquo 40rsquo 60rsquo 80rsquo 100rsquo minutes in order
to test capacity of the reactor to eliminate total bacteria Figure 7 The mean of experiments shows that at 60rsquo
minutes bacteria decreased by 812 - 877 in TiO2 UV-A reactor
Increase in bacteria has been recognized from 80rsquo minutes in 90 percent of total numbers of experiments
and we assume that bacteria are building up resistance to photo catalytic disinfectant

A Beside carrying out analysis of bacteria elimination capacity of waste water purification reactor we have
analyzed residue of waste water treated in different radiation time durations
The results show that waste water purification reactor TiO2 UV-A minimises microelements and heavy
metals content in waste water by 1225 ndash 3636 at 60rsquo minutes which shown in Figure 8

4 Conclusion
1 First time we carried out research work on extraction of titanium dioxide (TiO2) from polymetallic
ore with low content of Ti in Mongolia using sulphurization and recrystalization process and on
utilization of extracted titanium dioxide for purifying waste water By doing we attemp to show a
possibility of utilization of certain natural resources in sustainable way and developing sustainable
use of resources

metals content in waste water by 1225 ndash 3636 at 60rsquo minutes which shown in Figure 8
Fig 8 Content of microelements in waste water treated in TiO2 UV-A
a) 0-10 ppm content b) 10-90 ppm content c) 150-650 ppm content d) 2000-5000 ppm content
4 Conclusion
1 First time we carried out research work on extraction of titanium dioxide (TiO2) from polymetallic
ore with low content of Ti in Mongolia using sulphurization and recrystalization process and on
utilization of extracted titanium dioxide for purifying waste water By doing we attemp to show a
possibility of utilization of certain natural resources in sustainable way and developing sustainable
use of resources
2 Anatase mineral with 9918 titanium dioxide (TiO2) has extracted from ore and placed with UV-A
in the reactor to purify waste water
